# SimpleExpandableListAdapter

`public class SimpleExpandableListAdapter`
`` `extends BaseExpandableListAdapter` ``

java.lang.Object
↳ | android.widget.BaseExpandableListAdapter
| ↳ | android.widget.SimpleExpandableListAdapter

An easy adapter to map static data to group and child views defined in an XML file. You can separately specify the data backing the group as a List of Maps. Each entry in the ArrayList corresponds to one group in the expandable list. The Maps contain the data for each row. You also specify an XML file that defines the views used to display a group, and a mapping from keys in the Map to specific views. This process is similar for a child, except it is one-level deeper so the data backing is specified as a List>, where the first List corresponds to the group of the child, the second List corresponds to the position of the child within the group, and finally the Map holds the data for that particular child.
